My heart is hurting watching families get torn apart. No one deserves to live in fear of simply trying to survive. 💜

I am here because of my parents’ sacrifice—coming to this country with hope, working multiple jobs so we could have a future. As ICE raids tear families apart, I cannot stay silent. YES, IT'S PERSONAL. I exist because my parents endured and fought for something better.

Amid political uncertainty, I plant a vegetable garden—roots deep in resistance, leaves reaching toward hope. Bartering veggies with community, we grow more than food—we grow care, connection, and possibility. ✨

Missing her deeply. She has always been my inspiration, her gentleness, her empathy, & her just way of being. The kindness she carried was powerful, rooted in love for the land & all its plants. Her strength was quiet but undeniable, blooming in every act of care & connection.

1. 🌍🍅 The U.S. food industry is a global lifeline, feeding millions here and abroad. Mass deportations would cripple farms, disrupt supply chains, and leave shelves empty. Immigrant labor isn’t just essential—it’s irreplaceable. #FoodIsLife

Exclusive: Federal workers have filed an emergency motion requesting a restraining order to disconnect the DOGE server that's being used to conduct Trump's "deferred resignation program." The workers had previously accused DOGE of illegally bypassing a mandated privacy audit.

By me at @wired.com:
Federal Workers Sue to Disconnect DOGE Server
Two federal workers, citing reports that Elon Musk’s associates are operating an illegally connected email server at OPM, seek a restraining order.

They label us "diversity hires," as if our achievements were handed to us, not earned through relentless effort and perseverance. As if we didn’t stay up late studying while balancing jobs, family responsibilities, and systemic barriers.🧵

I cannot stress enough how important private funding will be for underrepresented (UR) scientists for the next 4 years. NSF and NIH fund summer research opportunities for UR undergrad students in STEM, mentoring programs starting in high school, funds for UR PhD students, & more.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉

Stay informed, but don’t overconsume. Protecting your energy is self-care. 🌿✨ It’s okay to set boundaries with news and social media—it helps you stay grounded and show up when it matters most. 💜✨
